Author: Daniel W. Whittle Hymnal: Favorite Hymns of Praise #207 (1967) Hymnal Title: Favorite Hymns of Praise First Line: Once far from God and dead in sin Lyrics: 1 Once far from God and dead in sin,
No light my heart could see;
But in God’s Word the light I found--
Now Christ liveth in me.
Chorus:
Christ liveth in me,
Christ liveth in me,
Oh! what a salvation this,
That Christ liveth in me.
2 As rays of light from yonder sun,
The flow’rs of earth set free,
So life and light and love came forth
From Christ living in me. (Chorus)
3 As lives the flow’r within the seed,
As in the cone the tree,
So, praise the God of truth and grace,
His Spirit dwelleth in me. (Chorus)
4 With longing all my heart is filled
That like Him I may be,
As on the wondrous tho't I dwell
That Christ liveth in me. (Chorus) Languages: English Tune Title: [Once far from God and dead in sin]
Christ Liveth in Me
